By instance are you speaking loosely, or do you mean a GlassFish
instance as defined here
(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26576_01/doc.312/e24928/domains.htm#geolm)?
 Note that a domain may have one to many instances.

Or, to ask it another way: suppose you have three environments (QA,
UAT and production). Suppose further there are three instances of
GlassFish running—one for QA, one for UAT and one for production. How
many GlassFish domains
(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26576_01/doc.312/e24928/domains.htm#geojp)
do you have? One, total? One for each GlassFish instance (in which
case, do you use the default instance, or one that you created by
hand)?

Thanks very much for your input.

Best,
Laird
